Scientific Interest

My research interest are connected to the chemical physics changes induced by ionizing radiation on matter.

Experimentally, I am using time resolved spectroscopies from UV to IR coupled with excitation with electron, ions and photons.

Theoreticaly, I am using classical molecular Dynamics, first principle molecular dynamics and non linear statisyical physics.
